We have to ask ourselves what kind of society allows the barbaric hunting of the other species with whom we share this world. In addition to satisfying the perverse pleasure of a minority of people, Wyoming wants to charge tourists $6,000 to hunt a grizzly. Yet again it’s about money – isn’t everything these days,

Please sign as many of the following petitions opposing trophy hunting as you can.

“Few men could endure to watch for five minutes an animal struggling in a trap with a crushed and torn limb. Some will wonder how such cruelty can have been permitted to continue in these days of civilization.”
Charles Darwin

I have to wonder why hunting and indeed all cruelty to animals is allowed to continue despite the overwhelming majority of us who would like to see it banned.

Time to ban worldwide trophy hunting, any hunting.

We have to question what kind of government allows its citizens to hunt animals, any animal. The killing of other living beings simply for the sickening pleasure of the emotionally challenged, who frankly need to seriously question their psychological health, needs to be questioned and brought to an end. What kind of person enjoys killing a defenceless animal, and in one of the twitter links below one trophy hunter callously displays his sickening enjoyment, what does that say about him or her? How will we ever have a more peaceful and just world for all, human and non human when we allow such atrocities to take place.

There is no place in our society for such barbarity.

Here are some of the latest trophy hunting outrages you might consider if you are in any doubt, and thankfully the majority of us certainly are not. Yet these atrocities continue as governments do little to nothing to ban them, even condoning, encouraging and sometimes participating as do many MPs here in the UK and in the US Trump of course condones his trophy hunting sons.

So that nobody forgets his vile deeds, this is @JimmyJohns's founder Jimmy John Liautaud with a few of his 'MANY' trophies. One of them is rumoured to be the last female Black #Rhino in the Mangetti National Park.

“Born Free is wholly opposed to the killing of animals for sport or pleasure, whether they are wild-born or bred in captivity. We have been working to bring the brutality of this so-called ‘sport’ to the attention of policymakers, enforcement bodies, and the public, for many years.”
